I ordered my TR 224 last night with all the goodies. Now it's time to see if this thing is all it's cracked up to be, and I intend to test it thouroughly.

Niiiice. It sucks how limited you guys are out in Cali, but at least you still have the good ole' 224. Keep us posted with the progress. My F13 is sittin on my floor beggin to be installed

I've been a happy camper with my TR224 and I'm sure you'll like yours also. I've put a total of 8 four-session road course events thus far on it, plus 15K+ street miles, absolutely no complaints.

It makes great power, lets me play with the Z06 Vettes on the straightaways, still gets 20+ MPG on road trips, and has a nice somewhat-smooth idle.

I have enjoyed my TR224 as well. Great cam in my opinion. Do you plan on installing a set of headers as well?

Yep, I've got a set of Mac's and UD pullies going on the same time the cam goes in. :dance:

I'm hoping for a noticable reading on the butt-o-meter.

You won't be disappointed! You'll want to get it tuned at part-throttle and WOT though, the TR224 upsets the low RPM range a bit and leaves things less than optimal...still runs fabulously but it's trimming fuel quite a bit.

Yes a tune is a must. I had my part throttle tune and wot done by Bill Wright. On the dyno it made 363rwhp (the dyno operator said his weather station was screwed up so I could just go ahead and add 10-15rwhp to that figure) and 379lb/ft. so using his "correction" it made around 373rwhp 379ft/lbs. Not too bad for a "baby" cam, stock ls1 intake, no ported throttlebody at the time.

Those are great numbers. Did you have your Macs on then?

Thanks for the tips crainholio. I didn't know you had to specify these things.

When the car was dynoed it had the cam, valvetrain, macs w ory and cutout. also had a lid on the car. Just noticed you are a 2002 meaning you have an ls6 intake, port that throttlebody and think about ditching the flowmaster. Or keep the flowmaster and just put a cutout in the exhaust system.
